Another thing to consider is that MSI controllers may use different
doorbells for different CPU affinities. With your implementation,
repeatedly changing the affinity from one CPU to another would increase
the refcounting, and never actually lower it (you don't necessarily go
via an "unmap"). Of course, none of that applies to GICv2m/GICv3-ITS,
but that's worth considering.

So I think we may need some better tracking of the IOVA we program in
the device, and offer a generic infrastructure for this instead of
hiding it in the MSI controller drivers.
